JUnit : Calculator Test Case Example

Introduction

In this post, we will look at a simple calculator test case example for writing JUnit tests. Also, this post helps beginners to understand writing and executing JUnit tests.

Calculator class

The Calculator class is the class to be tested. The class contains mathematical methods like add, subtract, multiply, divide methods that need to be tested. We will write JUnit test methods to test the methods.

Steps to create a Calculator class: Create Calculator Java class

JUnit Test mechanism

The @Test methods test the methods of the Calculator object under test.

Calculator Test Case

The below example shows some basic sample JUnit test cases.

package com.testingdocs.calculator.tests;

//Arrange-Act-Assert pattern
import com.testingdocs.calculator.Calculator;
import org.junit.Test; 
import org.junit.Assert; 
import org.junit.Before;

public class CalculatorTest {
private Calculator objCalcUnderTest;

@Before
public void setUp() {
//Arrange
objCalcUnderTest = new Calculator();
}

@Test
public void testAdd() { 
int a = 15; int b = 20; 
int expectedResult = 35;
//Act 
long result = objCalcUnderTest.add(a, b);
//Assert
Assert.assertEquals(expectedResult, result);
}

@Test
public void testSubtract() {
int a = 25; int b = 20; 
int expectedResult = 5; 
long result = objCalcUnderTest.subtract(a, b);
Assert.assertEquals(expectedResult, result);
}

@Test
public void testMultiply() {
int a = 10; int b = 25;
long expectedResult = 250;
long result = objCalcUnderTest.multiply(a, b);
Assert.assertEquals(expectedResult, result);
}

@Test
public void testDivide() {
int a = 56; int b = 10; 
double expectedResult = 5.6; 
double result = objCalcUnderTest.divide(a, b);
Assert.assertEquals(expectedResult, result,0.00005); 
}

@Test(expected = IllegalArgumentException.class)
public void testDivideByZero() { 
int a = 15; int b = 0;
objCalcUnderTest.divide(a, b);
} 
}

Calculator Test case

Right-click the JUnit test example class and run the test methods as “JUnit Test”. Furthermore, we can see that both the unit test methods are passed on the above screen.

In this example, we have placed Calculator class( the test class intended to be tested) in the same package as the test-case example class. However, this might not be the case while writing real tests. The application source code can be separated from test source code or automation code.
